This week we have a variety of organically grown lettuce form the patch. These young  lettuce are super fresh and delicious, picked the morning of your delivery !

By choosing organic lettuce not only do you get the  pesticide and chemical free food, you are receiving higher nutrient content, and supporting sustainable farming practices. Organic farming promotes soil health and biodiversity, which results in more flavourful and nutritious produce, contributing to overall better health and environmental well-being.

Lettuce is low in calories but rich in nutrients, including:

  • Vitamins: Particularly high in vitamin K and vitamin A.
  • Folate: Important for cell division and DNA synthesis.
  • Vitamin C: An antioxidant that supports the immune system.
  • Minerals: Such as potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure.
  • Fiber: Aids in digestion and promotes satiety.
  • Antioxidants: Including beta-carotene, which the body can convert into vitamin A.

Different varieties of lettuce may have varying nutrient profiles, with darker leaves generally containing more vitamins and minerals.
